2008-2009 Yearbook

hula 41 off the beaten path be able to see or do the things that our group does on this trip if I had tried to do it on my own. Our trips consisted of skiing at El Colorado in the Andes Mountains, exploring the Patagonia area of Chile, sand boarding, horseback riding, mountain biking and many other things. While in the Atacama Desert, we went sightseeing at Machu Picchu in Lima, Peru and relaxed at the Lake Region after class finals with some whitewater rafting and zip-lining. On Sunday mornings we got the privilege of going to Spanish church where we were warmly welcomed with kisses and hugs. We definitely experienced the Latin culture! I wish I could better explain just how awesome Chile is because it really is an experience of a lifetime. I got the chance to live in South America for three months traveling to places that many have never been before. I had the best time being adventurous and spending time with my new Harding friends. Jessie Sears, Sept. 23 journal entry from the Atacama Desert (the driest place in the world).
